Was Petrus ready all along?

This young man had a fantastic performance tonight against B.J. Raji. He's been a significant upgrade at the LG position and there was a noticeable improvement in the running game with Boothe included.

Tonight's loss didn't really upset me but the thought that Petrus could of and probably should of been at LG this entire season frustrates me more. Our running game would of been better and not to mention less sacks allowed since DD has been utter crap this season.

Anyone else think Petrus could of started for us this season? It's like last year when we put O'Hara back in at Center. Coughlin is just too loyal to his starters and this could be something that we look back at when this season's over.

Re: Was Petrus ready all along?

I hope we get to see more of Petrus down the final stretch here so we get a good evalution to know if he's our future LG or not. It would make rebuilding the O-line much easier and allow us to draft a Center in rounds 2-3. Boothe has been playing good but I'm still not comfortable with his snaps and would prefer him at RG if Snee can't return to his Pro-Bowl form.

This also makes me wonder if Brewer has been ready too and if Tom is just being too loyal to these O-line players from the Super Bowl year.
